Referring to the files Of the Stand
ard for the year 1857, we find an edi-
torial upon the subject Of the mineral
interests Of Jackson County which
reads we'll now. Salt Lick Diamond)
Furnace is referred to as having been
built for stone coal, and as having
tested stone coal sufficiently to con-
vince business men that the furnace
Of the future would be run by stone
coal. Then Young America was built
to run with stone coal. At that time
the stone coal furnace was the excep-
tion. Charcoal was the fuel generally
used. The writer of the article in the
old paper predicted that ere many
years stone coal would be generally
used in blast furnaces. Now it is
quite common. There are even great
er strides possible for Jackson County
in the future, and citizens should work
to that end.

The liquor business in Jackson
County seems to be reaching a point
where it is not profitable. Quite a
number of saloons have gone out OF
business on account of the tax taking
too much Of their meager profits, 9TH
ers have closed from different reasons,
and the business generally is being
cut down. While a part Of the credit
for this better condition of things is
due to the Dow Law, most Of it is due
to the fact that better public senti-
ment prevails now than in the past,
and the people have advanced to a
point where the internal business is
regarded with the contempt it deserves.
Fifteen years ago in Jackson the sa-
loon business was vastly more proita-
BILE than it is to-day. Gradually, as
the years have gone on, public senti-
ment has taken sides against the dog
gerry crime, and for the homes Of the
town and community, until doggery-
keeper has come to be looked upon in
about the right light. Without OBJ
jecting to or criticising ary mans
views regarding the best way to deal
with the liquor business, we will say
that this is a kind Of prohibition that
is always effective. Where the crime
is utterly ignored in the way Of pat
ronage, it will not flourish very long,
and we are pleased to note that jack
son County is moving right along this
line. 1t speaks well for the intelli-
gence and Christianity of our people.

ARBOR DAY.
Next Friday is the day appointed by the
governor of this State as Arbor day. MANY
| OF the States now have Arbor days, and thew
| are very pleasant and useful. Especially is
| this the case in some of the western States.
| where hundreds of thousands of trees planted
on Arbor days are growing.
Perhaps some of the inhabitants of this
State who would like to properly observe
Arbor day do not know what to do. To such
the master of the Connecticut State Grange
| makes some timely and valuable suggestions
in circular which he has sent to the oranges
OF the State. He recommends that not only
public streets and parks be ornamented by
trees and vines and shrubs, but that individ-
uals give attention to this subject and orna-
ment their lawns and plant towering vines
and shrubs. He would remove unsightly
trees and bushes, "brush up" the grounds
and improve them. In the evening he would
open the Grange hall. have discussions, sug-
gestions, a history of Arbor day; the best
list of ornamental plants, when aud how to
plant them; propagation of nut-bearing
trees; varieties of trees in the highway; best
school grounds; best grasses; planting and
trimming trees; hardy roses and their Gull
ture; front fences; best lawn mower, etc.
These are good ideas, and if they are re-
ceived and acted upon as they
ought to be Arbor day will be very good
thing for Connecticut, as it has been for
some Of the other States There are some
pretty towns in this State, but there are
many which could be greatly improved by
the planting of shade trees along the road
ways, and by other work of the kind sug-
gested above. The forethought which caused
the planting of New Haven's elms is now
thoroughly appreciated, and the exercise of
such forethought next Friday and other
Arbor days in all parts of the State would be
greatly appreciated by coming generations.
We hope to see the day very generally and
generously observed

its effectiveness is owing to the wonderful mucus

soothing and healing qualities of honey The com

in the Lactart and Honey this principle is found in
its most effective form The taste of the
edy is simply delightful and its curative effect is
testified to by the thousands who have tried and
are now using it In a climate like ours. where
coughs and colds eternally prevalent, rem
edy such as Lactart and Honey is simply national
boon. Nothing better has ever been devised for
children. Says Mr. F. A. Blaisdell, of Boston: II

An illustration of the difficulty attending

he thought he had converted to Christian

in the cabin of q steamer in which they

the servant on his knees worshipping
an image of Buddha, with candles and
joss sticks, and he asked the servant
if he was not a Christian, and elected

every often the fore feet give out. Some
times the shoulders become diseased. OF
course you know that horse strikes his fore
feet much harder than he does his hind ones
So when he is driven at lively gait, with
little time to rest, these hard stones wear the
fore feet to the quick or cause a tenderness
